Lyrics
The Gypsy Rover
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The whistling gypsy came over the hill,
Down to the valley so shady,
He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang,
And he won the heart of a lady.
Chorus:
Ah de doo, ah de doo dah day,
Ah de doo, ah de day dee,
He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang,
And he won the heart of a lady.
She left her father's castle gates,
She left her own fond lover,
She left her servants and her estate
To follow the gypsy rover
Chorus
"He is no gypsy, my father," she said,
"But lord of these lands over,
With him I'll stay till my dying day,
And follow the gypsy rover."
Chorus
The whistling gypsy came over the hill,
Down to the valley so shady,
He whistled and he sang till the green woods rang,
And he won the heart of a lady.
